Copper Ornament

Hi everyone. A second card for today - same layout and design as the first, just changing up the ornament to copper and a different shape. Still having difficulty photographing this card and think it must have something to do with the aperture. The ornament moves freely within the cut-out and so it's hard to get it to stay still :) This is the best shot I could get ... and it looks like the ornament is sideways ... but it's not in real life. Isn't photography fun??!! :)

This time I used my heated copper (the colors are beautiful in real life ... copper, pink, orange) and the soft copper really takes well to being embossed. I didn't have copper jump rings, so I used some copper wire and made my own jump ring with wire cutters and needle-nose pliers - pretty proud of myself :)

It's always so awesome when you share one of your copper pieces. This one, no different from all the others you've posted - is simply stunning. The sheer simplicity of the white card with that elegant ornament just takes the breath away. You should be very proud of your jump ring AND the entire card! I will be so happy to ever do one even close to this beauty! TFS & Hugs

Your photos were fine, Lolly. I think they clearly show how your fabulous cards work - which is like magic coz that's what you do, you work your magic with your creations and then I look at them and fall off my chair! One of these days, you're really going to hurt me!

Both cards you've made for the FF challenge are so pretty, Loll! I love how you've made the dangling ornament the focal point by keeping the rest of the card clean and simple. Thanks for playing along with FF this week!
